The prince of heaven only wants salted fish
Chapter 262: Abandoned by God (18)
Clara: “…”
She felt that her face had been numbed by old man Louis's deafening speech.
Worried that she was too ignorant, Clara also turned to look at Jicheng, and found that the other person's expression was exactly the same as hers, that of being shocked to the point of numbness.
Old man Louis was still talking smugly: "Have you ever heard of the custom of exorcizing corpses? It is quite a niche in August Continent. It probably means that when a person dies, he must return to his hometown. Okay, but corpses can’t walk. It’s too tacky to put them in coffins and transport them back to their hometown. We necromancers can directly control the corpses and let them walk back on their own!”
"Or if you reach my level, you can have a higher-end option, directly summoning the souls of the dead back from the underworld, so you don't need me to guide you - sometimes you just have to watch and not let the souls sneak away. ”
"And those who can afford to support this activity are all rich people. The profits are simply amazing..."
Jicheng: "..."
Clara: “…”
Old man Louis became more and more radiant as he talked, and he no longer cared about the magic-forbidden chains on his body: "Of course, there are still only a few rich people with such strong tastes, so I have opened up a new business!"
"Summoning Service for the Souls of Relatives!"
"Who doesn't have a deceased relative these days who misses you so much? As long as you give me enough money and information, I will summon you directly from the underworld! If you have anything to say, ask, or cry, you can do it in person. accomplish!!"
Clara: “…………”
According to legend, the necromancer is so awesome that he can communicate with the underworld, but are you using him to do this?
Jicheng asked: "Can you summon whomever you want?"
Old man Louis puffed up his chest: "After all, we are also great magicians close to the holy level! Give me a name, and I can summon prehistoric dinosaurs for you - but I don't guarantee that I can beat them!"
"In this case, if you can help get rid of this magic-forbidden chain on my body," he said, "in order to repay your life-saving grace, I will give you both a family summoning service for free! But this thing is also very expensive. It takes me a whole day to recover the magic power and mental power.”
"How about it?"
The magic-forbidden chain tied to Louis' body will lose its magic power if anyone touches it, and any magic attack will be directly absorbed. However, it is very hard, and it is very difficult to destroy it with pure warrior strength, so if there is no specialized As for the key, once it is locked, there is no way to unlock it.
Louis knew that the key to the chain on his body was in Sebastian's hand - but Sebastian put the key in the space ring, and Louis' own magic power was blocked again, so he was half-tied now. The way he got up, he alone had to search for Sebastian's body, find the corresponding space ring, find a way to cut his finger, shed blood to identify the main space ring, and then open the ring to unlock himself. Waiting for a series of actions is really difficult.
He originally expected that after Jicheng nodded and agreed, he would tell the other party the location of the key and help him unlock the door. Who knew that Jicheng just looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile, and then Louis only felt two cold lights flashing around him, and then two dings, and the string of magic-forbidden chains that bound Louis broke and fell to the ground.
"Okay, let's get started."
Louis: "??"
Louis raised his hands and feet in disbelief, then stretched out his hand to try to condense some magic power in his palms - it was probably because so many people died here. The concentration of death elements nearby was extremely pleasant, and soon Louis' palm lit up with a rich gray-white light and condensed into a small flame.
Just looking at it, Clara subconsciously felt that it was a bit permeable.
Louis stared blankly at the beating undead fire in his hand. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and cheered loudly: "I am free again!!"
Then Louis took out his staff directly from the space ring - it must be said that a necromancer's staff would be made to look like a gold coin, which was a bit too consistent with his "businessman" image.
Louis waved his staff, and Clara's eyelids twitched. Because of her instinctive rejection of the element of death, she almost thought that this guy was going to turn back and attack them.
But old man Louis just asked excitedly: "Okay, now let's talk about who the relatives you want to summon are!"
Clara shook her head repeatedly: "No, no, no, I'm an orphan and I don't have any relatives I miss."
——There was a pair of adoptive parents who had a history of child abuse, but they were later killed by her own hands. Clara estimated that these two people probably didn't want to see her again after death.
So old man Louis looked at Jicheng again: "What about you? Your name is Chen, right? Chen, looking at your age, you are only a teenager this year. Young people miss their parents most easily. Do you want to see them?"
Jicheng still had the same half-smiling expression - even after hearing Louis' question, the smile on his face became more subtle: "My parents are still alive."
——Chen was born in a kingdom called Braden. His parents were both high-ranking nobles in the kingdom, and both were great magicians. Their status, strength, and wealth were all very transcendent in the Kingdom of Braden. But it's a pity that in the hearts of his parents, fame, wealth and strength are far more important than feelings.
Even if your spouse is gone, you can remarry, and if your child is gone, you can have another child. What is more important than yourself?
So not long after Zai Chen was born, his parents sent him directly to participate in the selection of the Holy See of the Holy See of Light - for great magicians like them, if they contribute their children, it will be very beneficial to their reputation. , and if Chen comes to the back in the selection of the Holy Son, the Holy See of Light will also give them some awards.
When Chen Chen was fifteen years old, he had only met his parents twice.
As for the incident that happened later, his parents immediately cut off their relationship with Chen.
So after Jicheng came to this world, he never took care of his original parents - their self-management ability and self-preservation level had already reached a high level, so what did he need to worry about?
Of course, the content of these hidden storylines is not clear to Louis.
So he laughed awkwardly: "Young man is offended, hahaha..."
"However," Ji Cheng said, "I do have a few people I want to meet - oh no - Guixuan."
Louis originally thought that his previous proposal was self-defeating, but when he heard Jicheng say this, he immediately cheered up: "No problem, you say it!!"
“It’s okay if the quantity is larger, just make up the money!!”
Jicheng said slowly: "The first person I want to meet -"
"His name is Chen."
Old man Louis' originally hearty laughter suddenly stopped.
Clara's eyes when she looked at Jicheng were also full of horror, her expression seemed like she was reading a living ghost story.

"W-Which dust?"
Jicheng's tone was gentle: "It's the Chen you think of."
"..."
Louis said in a dry tone: "Young man, don't think that because I am a necromancer, you can make such hellish jokes with me..."
Jicheng: "I'm not kidding."
He encouraged: "Why don't you look for it first, what if you find it?"
To be honest, Jicheng was already thinking this when he first heard Louis say that he could communicate with the underworld and find the undead.
He has traveled through so many small worlds, and according to Siming Tianshen, he has possessed the bodies of these "sons of destiny" and lived their lives on their behalf - so, where have these "sons of destiny" gone?
Logically speaking, as "children of destiny", their destiny should be very positive. Even if their bodies are taken over by themselves, their souls should not be dissipated so easily, right?
In the previous worlds, Ji City had no chance to verify it, but in this world now, it is rare to encounter the profession of necromancer - the underworld that Old Man Louis mentioned obviously does not refer to the underworld among the heavens, but is mostly independent in this small world. A separate area.
If the souls of the deceased in August Continent exist there and will not dissipate, maybe he really has a chance to find the original soul?
Old man Louis didn't know these thoughts of Jicheng. At this moment, the corner of his mouth twitched [dòng], and he really wanted to reject this suggestion that sounded like walking around. However, Jicheng stood opposite him, with dozens of swords rising from behind. Guang, the expression on his face was still that harmless smile: "Try it. Maybe it can work?"
Louis: "..."
Under the threat of his life, old man Louis finally reluctantly closed his eyes - it seemed that he was starting to find someone for Jicheng in the underworld.
While he was meditating and closing his eyes, Jicheng and Clara took the time to clean up the battlefield again - when they were fighting before, they had set up a barrier to prevent the smell of blood from spreading out, but now the sky is gradually showing a white fish belly, waiting for the sky to fully light up From now on, it will be impossible to hide the situation here like this again.
In addition to collecting the bodies, Ji Cheng and Clara focused on searching for loot.
It has to be said that the people of the Holy See of Light are indeed rich. After a search, the two of them harvested countless gold and silver jewelry, many magic scrolls and precious props, and several space rings, including those carried by Sebastian and Reed. Jicheng briefly browsed through the teachings and scriptures of the Holy See of Light, and found that they were basically religious stories, and a small part were information from the Inquisition.
The intelligence also accurately recorded the identity of Old Man Louis: a ninth-level necromancer at the peak. The specific age is unknown, but it is conservatively estimated to be 500 years old. This is probably one of his advantages as a necromancer. He is more unlucky than some. All saints live longer.
He is elusive, rarely takes action, and basically does not interfere with anything between the Holy See of Light and the dark forces. If old man Louis hadn't once done his business of summoning relatives to the head of a nobleman who secretly surrendered to the Holy See of Light, It is estimated that the Holy See of Light still cannot find out his whereabouts.
In summary, old man Louis is the same person on the outside, and he has thoroughly implemented the two things of "working hard" and "making money" into his life.
It was also after Jicheng and Clara read the dossier containing the identity record that old man Louis slowly opened his eyes.
With a wave of the golden coin staff in his hand, two shadows with a strong aura of death appeared out of thin air.
"Young man," Old Man Louis asked in a weak voice, "Do you want this gold dust child, or do you want that silver dust child?"
Jicheng glanced at the two shadows: "Neither of them."
